Union Grove put together back-to-back 8-0 wins to knock Houston County out of the GHSA Class AAAAA state tournament. The Lady Bears opened the best-two-out-of-three series with the Lady Wolverines with a 3-2 win on Wednesday. Union Grove rallied in the nightcap of the double header, however, with the first 8-0 win.

That set up the third and deciding game Thursday, which Union Grove also won by the aforementioned score.

It out-hit the Lady Bears 11-3 while pushing across three runs in the first and third innings, one in the fourth and one in the sixth.

Emily Hittinger earned the win for Houston County in the first game, going 11 innings to get it. Thursday, however, figured her out. She gave up the runs, hits and walked six. On Wednesday she struck out seven. On Thursday she had none.

The Lady Bears finish their year 22-15-1.
